Here at Cottage Connection of Maine, we’ll help connect you to the perfect Maine Vacation Rental! We make it easy. Our knowledgeable and friendly staff of locals love making our guests feel welcome and cared for. After all, here in Maine, we’ve been welcoming visitors to our home for generations. Sharing our summer camps and cottages with friends and relatives from "away" has been going on here long before anyone coined the phrase "Vacation Rental".

In 1993, we decided to start helping our friends and neighbors rent their summer homes. This means each of our homes is privately owned and as unique as its owner. This means you get an authentic Maine experience; you get to live like a local! And most of our homes are full houses with kitchens and lobster pots, bedrooms and bathrooms. Many have full yards, some have private docks & floats. (We have a hand full of beautiful efficiencies and condos too.)

Our owners create unique and welcoming homes, Cottage Connection provides professional management. Together we ensure a standard of excellence and comfort today's travelers expect. Many of our homes are pet friendly too! So contact us today and let us connect you to the perfect cottage.

We are local. Our entire team lives in and around Boothbay year-round. We grew up here. We raised our kids here. We've experienced other parts of the world, but this is home. We always come back, we love it here, and so will you! So ask us questions. Let us help you build the absolutely perfect vacation for you, your freinds, your family.

CLASSIC MAINE COTTAGE FROM CAMPS TO CASTLES

Somewhere in our large inventory is the perfect cottage in the perfect location for you. Ocean front, lakeside, forest or intown –location is often just as important as the cottage itself. We have specifically chosen the cottages we feature finding the best of the gems offered in our area. We proudly partner with the owners of our cottages to provide you with a unique, authentic Maine experience.

SO MUCH TO SEE, SO MUCH TO DO

Boothbay Harbor is a very active seaside boating community and one of the most picturesque places in coastal Maine. Whether you bring your own boat, enjoy local offerings or simply watch them go by, boating is a big part of being here. Let local guides show you reversing falls, try sea kayaking or paddle up a salt-water river. Take a four-hour whale watch or puffin cruise, a two-hour sunset or reggae cruise or sail the Harbor on a schooner. You can even try lobstering for a day!

Need to stretch those sea legs out a bit? We also have miles of trails through preserves and protected lands via the Boothbay Region Land Trust. There's the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, Maine State Aquarium and our newly renovated YMCA with a brand new Olympic-size pool. The Boothbay Country Club has been renovating to create a tournament level golf course and the Dolphin Mini Golf is as much fun as ever!

Shopping, antiquing, galleries, art, jewelry and local crafts can all be found here. Our night life includes live theater, a movie theater, dinner theater and lots and lots of live music. And don’t forget about the food. We have incredible food here. So bring your appetite, let go of your stress and don't forget your camera! <more>

DID SOMEONE SAY FESTIVAL?

And don't forget our festivals! The season kicks off with the locally inspired Fisherman's Festival, the schooners parade in for Windjammer Days and the food and music just never stops for Harborfest! We have tons of things to celebrate here and there is usually some sort of event going on to do just that: come join us!

TOGETHERING

When we think about what makes a vacation fantastic, it is usually the memories of the people we were with every bit as much as where we were or what we were doing. We wanted to point out –what we think is– one of the best reasons to stay together in a vacation rental rather than separately in a hotel. Togethering is that reason. Hanging out over breakfast in your jammies. Teaching the art of s’mores to a new generation. Enjoying a cocktail as the sun goes ‘plunk’ into the ocean. Looking at all the great pictures you took today. Sitting around the living room sharing family stories. Togethering is a large part of why we gather, why we travel to see each other. Think back over some of your favorite memories –sometimes sharing them creates new favorites.
